DESCRIPTION:La Huelga, The Struggle of UFW (18 m) 2009 By Alex Ivany\nAlex Ivany as a 
 high school student started this project for Santa Cruz High, fascinated by 
 the achievements of Chavez and the early days of the United Farm Workers 
 Movement. \nhttp://www.reelwork.org/schedule.htm\n\nBracero (57 min.) 2008 
 By Patrick Mullins\nThe Bracero Program, which operated in the US between 
 1942-1964 has relevance today as business and some unions are pushing this 
 again. Otherwise known as the “Guest Worker” program, this allowed for 
 workers to be brought into the US and to work under specific farm owners 
 and others. Their exploitative conditions were intensified as a result of 
 this program. This film gives a real life look at the workers and how the 
 program really worked. This documentary puts a human face on the lives of 
 these “guest workers” and raises the issue of why unions should 
 continue to support this type of program.
